Today was as busy as I had anticipated. First order of business was to check out the hotel and walk down to the U-Haul depot about a quarter of a mile. There we picked up a 10 foot box truck. From there we drove to Pratt University Max used to go. We met up with Professor Mark Rosin, I one of Max’s Professors who for many years had a science troop called “guerilla science”. The group would go and set up at festivals and show fun interactive science projects\u2026 Just my kind of thing. Mark was a very fun guy\u2026 He had a PhD in mathematics from Cambridge and loved teaching art.\u2026 He was donated to us a 600 pound fire organ. Basically multiple Rubens tubes which convert music to dancing sheets of fire. I’ve built a small one\u2026 But this will take it up a few notches. Marc and his calling Frank helped us maneuver the heavy gear into the back of the box truck. Thank goodness we hadn’t gone with anything smaller because it would not have fit.<\/p>\n

From there we negotiated this large vehicle through the crowded streets of Brooklyn up towards Williamsburg. There we met my friend Suzanne (“Suz”) who is a neuroscience professor at NYU. For the next 4 1\/2 hours Suz, her student Phoebe, Our Friend Nitin, Diane and I prepped for a data recording experiment we’re doing later in the month. I can’t go into the details here but it was really good that we had this practice session. Lots of technical details to work out… and lots of fun !
